Vacant Eyes

Folder: 
Anger

i see you now

you try to hide

behind those dark

vacant eyes

but dont you know

that over time

ive seen right through

to whats inside

and from what ive seen

its hideous indeed

full of untrust and anger

hatred and greed

but these things that i speak of

you hide them quite well

no one knows what goes on

in my personal hell

no one hears the screams

the daggers you throw

with words razor sharp

might as well slice my veins

but when the door opens

and the daylight breaks

and the marks from last night

are dried tears on my face

its then that you smile

dress up and play nice

i want to tell them all

you really are vile

but who would believe me?

a child lost in dreams

a child that speaks her mind

a child with ripped seams

no, they'd just laugh

'silly girl' they'd say

'doesnt she know

shes been given the world?'

maybe they're right

maybe its true

but i would rather have earned it

than to accept it from you

and to think that through all

of your bullshit and lies

I was the one

who stuck by your side

so yea, go ahead, throw me away too

burn another bridge, you always do

and think of me next time

that you're handing out lies

and look at my face now

these tears have dried

so how does it feel

to know you cant hurt me?

i dont really know

if this is how you wanted it to be

but this is how it ends

im done with this pain

so with nothing left to lose

and everything to gain

im packin my shit

dont wish me well

have a nice life,

ill see you in hell
